Mastodon

Mastodon have released another new song from their upcoming seventh album Emperor Of Sand. Titled Andromeda, it follows the previous two track releases Show Yourself and Sultan’s Curse.

Sultan’s Curse is due for release on March 31, via Reprise Records, and is available to pre-order on iTunes.

Speaking previously about the album tracks, drummer Brann Dailor said: “There is a tie, a concept that goes between them. The last couple of years have been not… there’s been some illness within the bands’ family, there’s been a bunch of cancer.

“So the whole album is sort of all about cancer basically. Well, not literally. It’s a big story that sort of roped to go along with it. It takes place in the desert.”
